Why this scored 58/100

Microbiome and stool testing is one of the most heterogeneous DTC categories — the underlying method (16S rRNA sequencing vs shotgun metagenomics vs qPCR-based multiplex like GI-MAP) matters enormously, and hellohealth does not disclose which methodology or which processing lab is used. Clinical actionability of most microbiome results is limited — while the field has strong research evidence, individual-level 'your Bacteroides is low, take probiotic X' recommendations are not well supported by RCT evidence. Comprehensive stool panels that include calprotectin, elastase, and pathogens (parasites, C. diff toxin, H. pylori) have real clinical utility for GI workups. Would need methodology disclosure to score higher. Standard tier reflects legitimate research foundation but weak individual-level actionability.

Evidence & sources

The Vyvata score's Evidence dimension measures the quality of published RCT support for a product's active ingredients at the label dose. Our source hierarchy: double-blind RCTs in MEDLINE-indexed journals > single-blind RCTs > open-label trials > observational studies > mechanism papers > N=1 case studies (anecdotes). Predatory journals and manufacturer-authored studies without independent replication are weighted down.

Product-specific evidence citations for this item are embedded in the analysis text on the "Analysis" tab. For the full framework and evidence hierarchy, see the methodology page.

How to read the Evidence dimension

  • 80–100: Multiple double-blind RCTs in indexed journals directly testing this product OR the exact ingredients at the exact dose.
  • 60–79: Single double-blind RCT + supporting ingredient literature at the studied dose.
  • 40–59: Open-label trials + ingredient literature; no product-specific double-blind evidence.
  • 20–39: Ingredient literature only; no product-specific trials or trials in predatory venues.
  • 0–19: No credible evidence base or unverifiable claims.
